AMG have lost their way with some of their newer models, but they’ve nailed it with the GT 63. Just a gorgeous car with the sound and performance to match.
6:28 I know you may not believe me, but I had literally thought about how quick the tech will age with those thick bezels and super reflective LCD screens in like 4 years. For such a tech focused brand, they'ought to create tech parity with modern smartphones because let's face it, that's is the new direction anyway
Good video guys. For $100k less, I am happy with my 2024 Jag F-Type P-575. Love it! F-Type is better looking, better sound, supercharged and better interior. That Merc screen is obnoxious
The F Type has the HP of the 63, but can’t put them on the road. Performance is slightly less than the 55, so it’s not a real comparison. Realistically for 30k more you could have this with better performance than the Jag. There is no comparison in the drive and interior. I’d take the 55 over the jag. But full disclosure, I got the 63.
well having driven both I have to disagree. The F type has the noise without the power. The supercharger is . . . wanting. Like all superchargers there is a delay, and the overrun sounds like a loud fart. Sure it turns heads but who wants people looking and saying ‘did that car fart?’ The F type is in a different space. It’s nice, it’s a great sports car. It goes, but the power lags. It’s kind of an entry level ‘I’ve made its car. The interior feels a little cheap, infotainment is weak. The jag is a well dressed slightly caddish guy going out for a pint. The 63 is an axe murderer. It’s brutal. If you parked your F type next to it at the pub you’d come back and find it chopped up in black plastic bags in the 63’s trunk.
@@IanTheCarGuy I'd take that supercharged engine over turbo engine any time. It is more responsive and the power is more linear. It pulls like a freight train - especially in the mid range
Of course you would, because it’s what you know and love. However there is simply no comparison when you are in the 63. It pulls and pulls and pulls and the 4matic lets you put the horses on the road. Check out the 55. You may even get lucky and find a dealer with a 63 to test drive. It’s a little higher in price range than the F type. The cabin is far more spacious and you can actually carry luggage. I ditched the F partly because it’s a garage princess. The trunk is non existent, You can’t use if for a daily drive and it isn’t useful as a weekend getaway. It’s pretty for sure and compares well against the cars in its class, a Cayman or a Corvette. But at the end of the day it’s a weekend runaround.
The other problem with all AMG's, is that you have to pay $5000 for freight and PDI. It doesn't matter which one you buy. Not a problem for someone who can afford a GT, but for an A45?? I already send an email to Mercedes about how outrageous this is. But it would be great if more reviewers complained about that and help your viewers out.
@@hazee_01for me yes, I bought the AMG because I wanted a daily driver that’s practical for long weekends at the beach or in the mountains. The Porsche isn’t practical for that. Plus it’s a little bit boring.
@@hazee_01 the Carrera 4 GTS is probably the closest pricewise. Loaded up they land around the same price. Are close on speed. That’s all they have in common. The Porsche is . . . . Just like every other carrera you see. And you see a lot of them (although Porsche mostly seem to make SUVs these days). It has that zippy whine of a flat 6. It’s fun,cute and commonplace. Everyone knows it’s a $200k car. It is the safe ‘I’ve really made its option. Or maybe it just says mid life crisis. The AMG growls and pops. You hear it before you really see it, then you wonder ‘WTF is that?’ It always gets a front spot with the valet, unless they have a bevy of McLaren’s and Ferrari’s in. It says ‘go on. Ask me why’. Rather than ‘nice Porsche’ the most common comment is ‘what is that?’ So for rarity and wow factor the AMG is by far the choice. I don’t think they are really exotic per se. One is a fine piece of German engineering. The other is an axe murderer.
I hate that I have to take my gloves off to operate my car because it’s an ipad controlling everything instead of physical buttons. So cheap feeling. Mercedes Benz feels like a Gen Z company at this point, the new e-class is marketed as “having angry birds”???

I don’t understand why it doesn’t have 603hp if BMW can do it so can MB and i don’t want to hear “ emissions “
8:13 no that seat is for Ian 😂
When can you review the new E53?
the only car reviewer who I watch for fun and don't end up skipping or speeding up the video... you two are awesome :)
Appreciate you!
Why is this fax though
I'm listening to this video through my headphones and it sounds amazing and bassy
Absolute beauty.
The video production is on another level🤯🔥🔥
The center screen and no physical buttons ruins such a beautiful car😔
ipad interior
“Beautiful”
lol.
Why all the ac controls are always on screen
As others have said its a beautiful car. Great review guys!
This is beautiful, love it
AMG have lost their way with some of their newer models, but they’ve nailed it with the GT 63. Just a gorgeous car with the sound and performance to match.
Great review as always guys
what a beauty
Finally a good looking GT from Mercedes
For that amount of money the screen should have thinner bezels. Every detail matters
A good looking “SL COUPE”.
I prefer the look of the prev gen..green hell AMG GTR❤❤

This is beautiful, love i
isn`t new aston martin vantage basically the same car?
like in 20 years old mb will be old mb
and aston will always be aston
thats where you are wrong. Mercedes has more classic cars than Aston Martin and they hold value better than Aston Martins
Could You Review the MB AMG CLE 53? ThanQ❤
Beautiful car
Best looking sports car by a mile
AMG took some design cues from the 911
Upcoming zr1 my beer
We need a 2018 m6 f06 review
Looks like a 911!!
Why not get the CLE 53 AMG, it's only slower by maybe 1 second to 60mph and it's less than half the price and has a similar menacing presence?
The other problem with all AMG's, is that you have to pay $5000 for freight and PDI. It doesn't matter which one you buy. Not a problem for someone who can afford a GT, but for an A45??

That license plate placement is atrocious.
Yeah it’s a bummer it has to have one
Would take the AMG gtr over this in a heart beat!
For that money I will go with the Corvette ZR1
I hate to be that Amurican but can you also provide the cost in USD and capacity in gallons? 😬
We will try haha.
Nearly looks like the Peugeot RCZ, only the amg is not a daily driver
❤❤❤
Looks like Merc took inspiration from Jaguar F-type.................
It’s a Bigger and heavier car than the previous gen
👍😎.....
How does this car compare to a Porsche 911 Carrera S/Gts?
A little more expensive. Faster. Bigger. More practical. A lot more drama. Less boring.
@@IanW-y2vwould you say that it is the better car?
@@hazee_01for me yes, I bought the AMG because I wanted a daily driver that’s practical for long weekends at the beach or in the mountains. The Porsche isn’t practical for that. Plus it’s a little bit boring.

At 200k, this car should be the best of the best in its class which it is not by miles….
m4 for half the price is probably more fun car with usable back seats
Please say the US Price. I’m sure you want yanks to subscribe!
